- Citation and Plagiarism
Theses may use in-text parenthetical citations, footnotes, or endnotes, depending upon the citation style chosen and the number of citations. For example, APA uses in-text parenthetical citations, whereas Chicago or Turabian use in-text, footnotes, or endnotes. Theses with numerous notes should use footnotes for ease of finding references. While APA works well for most Interior Design theses, qualitative or historical theses should use Chicago or Turabian, which use foot- or endnotes.
Concepts, expressions, and words, whether quoted directly or paraphrased, must receive a correct citation according to the selected bibliographic method. A quotation copies the exact words (including errors) of a source and is either within quotation marks or, if more than 40 words, set off in the text. Paraphrasing gives the content of a passage, chapter, or section in the student’s own words. It generally has the same number of words as the original. A summary gives the content of a passage, chapter or section in fewer words than the original.
